What's the reasoning? May 2022 through October 2022 Allure of the Seas , not selling any cabins higher then Junior Suite's

[chucknmarilyn]

There are a ton of people that have a huge amount of FCCs which need to be used. A lot of them are using this as an opportunity to upgrade so suites are selling even faster than normal. Seems completely logical to me.

It doesn't matter how many FCCs are out there, it is very unlikely that is what's causing a whole season's worth of suites to not be listed.

My vote is an IT glitch similar to the $18 dollar drink package and they shut it down.  I would also image that the general non Cruise Critic public may be discouraged by now with the cancellations and the protocol changes and have asked for refunds.  Even the diehards here seem defeated. There may not be as many FCCs out there as we think. Another theory is that Jimbo may have a dark cloud hanging over his head and the universe is out to get him....🙂

We’ve been unable to find a suite for February.  I keep thinking that people are holding on to them but assuming many will yet cancel.  TBD.

RCI also holds big blocks of rooms for TA's.  I have seen many rooms open up within 90 days of sailings.

They are not going to hold a whole season's worth of cabins and don't believe that applies to suites anyway.

Maybe Wonder will be replacing Allure for this timeframe and the high end suites may not match up well for an easy transfer?

[chucknmarilyn]

Wonder will replace Allure.

[Canadianmama3]

We are booked on Allure for July 2022.  I just went to reprice it and I’m just getting errors. 

[FionaMG]

@Jimbo, looks like you hit the jackpot. Seemingly Wonder is replacing Allure in Europe next year and guests currently booked on Allure will be moved across. Fingers crossed for you that this is true.

I like you thoughts 🙂 I wouldn't mind that happening at all.

 

Edit: Just looked outside , no black clouds over my house.

How long was the IT glitch out there for the $18 dollar drink package...................This issue has been at least 2 weeks with no cabins above JS's available.

So sounds like we may get moved to Wonder? That would be amazing if we did.  
 

We were originally booked on Vision for our Med cruise but I moved to Allure a few months ago cause my husband wanted a newer and bigger ship.  

[AshleyDillo]

So this means Allure is out of service long enough for an amplification before heading to Galveston?  Just pure speculation, of course.

About a day - it will become more obvious why the suites were taken off the site when RCI announces Allure's repositioning. 

[Jimbo]

Found this on the web site, maybe just a matter of time.................Happy, Happy here !!!!

The ship class that redefined cruising just got bolder. The world’s biggest ship, Wonder of the Seas℠, brings even bigger adventures to the award-winning Oasis Class. Like eight unique neighborhoods, including the all-new Suite Neighborhood. A totally redesigned pool deck with more ways to soak up the sun — or shade — than ever before. The most immersive AquaTheater ever, with a game-changing surround-stage that makes you feel like part of the action. And the all-new Playscape, an underwater world studded with slides, climbing walls and games, where imaginations can soar. Plus returning fan-favorites like the FlowRider® and Ultimate Abyss℠.

Lots of folks here would be sad to be stuck on the floating amusement park that Wonder is.😱

I am not one of those people😉

Probably going to place me in the  suite neighborhood area with black clouds overhead...............

Maybe it does when there's a crane involved?  I thought Oasis was a May 2019 amplification but the first sailing wasn't until November 2019.

We have already been on Allure a few times already and would suffer through Wonder's amusement park gladly. 🙂

Our July cruise on Allure in a Grand Suite is now showing "Cancelled" as of just a few minutes ago.

 

Hpefully that means we will be transferred to Wonder.
